For those who commented on wanting the library, if you look deeper in the catalogue, you should see there are some library zip discs available as well.
These are a compilation of banks that we managed to recover from Alan's ageing and decaying floppy libraries. Most of the 101 stuff is on there as well as a few tasty banks from the SOFAD tour.

What format are the SOFAD banks in? Are these Emax 2 format too (like the 101 ones) on zip disk? Couldn't see these specifically on the catalogue list...

Yeah, probably will out of interest. Not far from me (Preston).

Not that I need one, would be cool to have the EII (for ownership history) but no point expecting that will stay within reach... 

Would be good to give those old EII floppy disks a go though, shame they're not being auctioned separately. Have found most old floppy disk loading varies a lot between the drives used. Managed to find a brand new, original Shugart SA465 last year that works a treat on mine. Oh well...

Because we users of E-mu Emulator Sampler  Forum do not collect a sum of money in order to make an offer for Emax Zip Disc library auction?
A member of the forum of English nationality or who it wants participates at auction can do an offer for we users of the forum.
If  we adjudicate the auction, everyone of we that to participated will have 'right to a copy of Emax Zip Disc library on the cheap.

Hi group, greetings from an old DSP/synth guy, but total Emulator newbie.  Seeing this AW/DM auction has got all sorts of old juices fired up.  Now I understand these old guys paying top dollar for weird 70s muscle cars -- the ones they couldn't afford when they were teens Wink

Chevytraveller -- your comment sounds like you were involved in the process of compiling the zip disks in the AW auction.  Do you know anything specific about the formats involved?  emax1 or 2, for instance?  It seems logical that all the banks on the zips would work on an emax2 turbo w/8MB, but I'm wondering if they would work on an emax2 with only 1 or 2 megs, or even an emax1?   Would an E3 play back the data on such a zip disk?  I've sent an inquiry to the auctioneers, but doubt they'd be able to answer.  Sorry if this is an ill-posed question.  I /am/ a total newbie regarding E-mu gear, but have tried to put in the google time before asking questions ...

re: group buy of one of the lot 69 discs --  I'm certainly interested in a part-share for a group bid.  I plan to bid on one, and would be willing to make a few copies for people with emax hardware, if I'm able to win.  If I don't win, I'd pay a reasonable part-share to participate in a collective.

Yes I was involved in compiling the discs (I even got a credit in the catalogue :-).
The banks are all saved as Emax II banks. The vast majority of them (101 tour) will load in any Emax II as they were originally loaded from Emax I floppy discs and so are small bank sizes.
Some of the later banks from the SOFAD tour do require an 8MB Emax to play in their entirety as there are many samples layered, but individual presets may load.

Either way, there will be a way of getting the sounds on to any Emax either by EMXP or other means.
Once the auction has run, then I can say/do more for the group with regard to accessing them from other devices/formats

hope this helps

Thanks a million, chevytraveller, that's exactly the info I was looking for.   I reckoned there'd be some procedure via EMXP and a usb-zip for extracting the raw wavs, or even an old midi SDS dump, for getting the material into Kontakt or suchlike, but this research has actually convinced me to buy an Emax 2, and I might even spring for an E2 someday now that emuser exists.  Awesome stuff in this forum, thanks everyone!

Dear Lord, I lost control this morning and bought an E2 from a fellow on ebay with zero feedback.   Tongue  What was I thinking?  Time to fire up the scope, warm up the soldering iron.  I really don't know how my wife puts up with this...
